My wife and I have a 10-month old son named Ivan. He is fantastic, and we love being parents.
The good news is that my wife is an awesome mother. I’m not a bad father, either. Only one problem:
I can’t figure out how any of the baby equipment — strollers, cribs, walkers, bassinets, pak-n-plays — is assembled. We bought a special inflatable tub made especially for infants. It’s like a kiddie pool that you blow up and put in the bathtub.
AND I COULDN’T FIGURE OUT HOW TO INFLATE IT!!
Finally, I said to my wife, “how much does this thing cost? ‘Cause whatever that amount is, why don’t you just give to me, so I can flush it down the toilet, for all this is going to do for us.”
Ten minutes later, she had the thing inflated. Don’t ask me how she did it. I don’t know — AND I WATCHED HER DO IT!
So, what does this mean? Well, it means that Ivan’s dad is a knucklehead.
On the other hand, it also means that Ivan will always be kept laughing and amused — even if it’s at my expense.
